Wilda
Breathe, gather, return to connection
Meadows and orchards set the scene, but Wilda’s focus is the work people do together: somatic therapy, breathwork and sacred ceremony, held with an emphasis on kindness and safety. The approach is intended to support connection, ease and more authentic relationships, rather than treat meditation as a stand-alone technique. Retreats take place at Pip Farm, a South Devon venue where accommodation sits among the greenery. Between sessions, guests can warm up in a wood-fired sauna or take a bracing dip in the stream-fed plunge pool, a memorable counterpoint to quieter inner work. Coffee and tea are listed, alongside vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free dietary options. Meal details are shared after registration is confirmed, so check what a particular retreat includes. Wilda’s gatherings are paid retreats, and their format may vary. Ask about the rhythm of the specific retreat before booking.
